Thoughts:

This book is so good! It's so interesting to read about how Malcolm X became such a powerful and inspirational figure. It is a very good insight into institutional racism, and very useful to understand the difference between the racism in the North and South of America during this time. It is also very inspirational to see Malcolm X go from a drug addict to the leader he turned out to be after his jail sentence. I learnt alot of things about the black communities in America and how they coped during the mid 20th century whcih was very interesting. It also helped proved my hypothesis that educaction is one of the most important things ever. There were also cameos from Muhammed Ali and other celebrities and the stories of how they met each other. And it was interesting to read about how he went to Africa and met all those leaders, and how his ideology changed over time.It was so sad to hear about his early family life and I felt so bad for him mom omds and also RIP his dad. :( It was also proper funny, like I wish I could have a conversation with him because he's actually really funny and smart. I highly reccomend it. Everyone should read. IT'S SO SAD THAT HE ONLY LIVED HALF HIS LIFE OMDS AND THEY NEVER FOUND HIS ASSASSINS WHAT A BUNCH OF LOSERS RIP MALCOLM X GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN
